Download or read book Crossing Sexual Boundaries written by J. Ari Kane-Demaios and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-12-31 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Transgender" has become a convenient umbrella term to cover a collectivity of individuals (including cross-dressers, transvestites, transsexuals, and intersexuals) who do not conform to traditional norms of gender identity or behavior. Until recent centuries, transgender behavior has rarely been the subject of scholarly or public attention. During the 20th century, medical advances in hormone therapy and reconstructive surgery, the worldwide publicity generated by the Christine Jorgensen story in the 1950s, and the popularity of such plays and movies as La Cage Aux Folles and The Birdcage make the subject much more visible for society. This book is a compilation of autobiographies of women and men who openly describe their different and often very difficult journeys, frankly. Using a decade-by-decade format, the contributors provide the reader with critical insights into the process of realization that led to their various gender expressions. The contributors include homosexuals, heterosexuals, and bisexuals, and their life stories make clear that a good deal of diversity exists within the gender community. A thorough introduction by the editors provides many insights into gender issues from a biological, socio-anthropological, and historical perspective.

Download or read book Transgender Marxism written by Jules Joanne Gleeson and published by Pluto Press (UK). This book was released on 2021-05-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transgender Marxism is the first volume of its kind, offering a provocative and groundbreaking synthesis of transgender studies and Marxist theory.Reflecting on the relations between gender and labour, it shows how these linked phenomena structure antagonisms in particular social and historical situations. While no one is spared gendered conditioning, the contributors argue that transgender people nonetheless face particular pressures, oppressions and state persecution. The collection makes a particular contribution to Marxist feminism and social reproduction theory, through both personal and analytic examinations of the social activity demanded of trans people around the world.Exploring trans lives and movements through a Marxist lens, the book also assesses the particular experience of surviving as trans in light of the totality of gendered experience under capitalism. Twinning Marxism with other schools of thought - including psychoanalysis, phenomenology and Butlerian performativity - Transgender Marxism ultimately offers an insight into transgender experience, and an exciting renewal of Marxist theory itself.
Download or read book Lady V and Other Stories written by Dumitru Radu Popa and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. Translated from the Romanian by Simina Calin, Calin-Andrei Mihailescu, Ramona Uricescu, and Liana Lupas. Popa's Lady V. is still a virgin after four marriages, yet one can't say if this entitles her to travel from the actual world of the Frick Museum into Whistler's paintings exhibited therein. With a touch of Hawthorne and a bow to Henry James, "Lady V." invites the reader to step into the story and see from the inside its contours. From this refined decadence the world goes on psyche's sly fantastic slopes in a "Choice" reminiscent of Salem 1692, to then return, with the delirious humor of "Panic Syndrome!," to Manhattan, the psychoanalysts' neighborhood. At the end of all these turns the reader gets it: nobody invented anxiety, but in the Great Belly of the City, full of butterflies, the legion of pros is there to shrink it.

Download or read book The Pigs Drink from Infinity written by Mark Spitzer and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Mark Spitzer's bold and colorful verse globetrots from the millennial Beatnik joints of Euro-Bohemia to the eagly mountains of Colorado to the junkyards of the West to the swamps of the Deep South and beyond. Sometimes lyrical, sometimes narrative, sometimes in-your-face, other times reverent, political and surreal, you can't help slapping your knees and laughing out loud when some annoying neighbor tries to sell his bbq sauce, when quiche is metaphoric for whence we all come, when muscle cars crash in Flashbakistan. This book is already a cult classic, a brick through the corporate window of America, a tribute to scum-sucking bottom feeders while the Twin Towers burn "in a genetic/jet fuel/inferno."
Download or read book Spiritland written by Nava Renek and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. SPIRITLAND follows the journey of Maddy Foster as she travels through the fringe world of backpackers, drug dealers, Vietnam Vets, and other ex-pats living in Thailand. During Maddy's first week in Bangkok, she discovers a notice on a traveler's bulletin board where parents are seeking information about their missing daughter. From that moment on, Maddy embarks on her own informal search for this fellow American woman, meanwhile losing herself in the quest. Throughout her journey, Maddy chooses to surround herself with other lost souls whose stories are interwoven with her own and may explain the choices the characters make and the factors that have gotten them into their unusual, and sometimes desperate, circumstances. Maddy's deteriorating state of mind and escalating drug use lead to a succession of bad decisions, bringing her closer to her own destruction. "Nava Renek's SPIRITLAND moves with all the intensity and subtlety of an Asian tiger-it is at once both beautiful and powerful. Her character Maddy Foster wavers in a modern-day purgatory between the ancient and the addicted, ancestral spirits and the spiritually lost. Her exquisite descent into hell is recorded with such a poetic realism it reads as if Dante himself had updated Let's Go Thailand 2002"--Arthur Nersesian, author of The Fuck-Up.
